J.L. “FRED” fred@setimes.com.au s historic y changed being on the market for over two years. The vendor of Woodgreen was the National Trust of South Australia. It has been the owner of the Hart Street property since the mid-1970s due to a bequest from Millicent resident Francie Gower. The selling agent was Millicent Real Estate. A vendor bid of $200,000 667072 $ 20 FOR 3 ^ $ 997 SAVE $ 54 SAVE $ 5 DANIEL’S BAR SIGN¥ WIN A JACK $ 82 SAVE $ 16 was made for Woodgreen when it went to auction in March, 2013 and the property was subsequently listed on the open market for $249,000. For almost 40 years, the Millicent branch of the National Trust has received rental income from the homestead as it was converted into three apartments. Woodgreen had first been placed on the open market around a decade ago, but the Adelaide headquarters of the National Trust had a change of heart and it was withdrawn from sale. It has been a prominent landmark since it was built 119 years ago for Millicent’s first postmaster, Mr EJ Harris. It is said that one of Millicent’s first golf courses was established by Mr Harris in the grounds of Woodgreen at the beginning of the 20th century. Another important event to have occurred at Woodgreen took place on April 20, 1922, with the birth of Archie McArthur at his family’s home. He went on to serve as a naval officer in World War II, graduate from the University of Adelaide, be awarded the Medal of the Order of Australia and to become a prominent ant researcher at the South Australian Museum. Mr Foley sentenced Wall to two years in prison, reduced to 17 months. He fixed a non-parole period of 11 months and backdated the sentence to February 2. Wall was in the news in December 2013 when he set his pants alight while smoking and siphoning fuel from vehicles at a car dealership in Millicent. Wall punctured the petrol tanks of two vehicles and was in the process of collecting fuel from the tanks when he lit a cigarette, causing the petrol to ignite. Closed circuit television footage later showed how his pants caught fire and he quickly pulled them down before running from the scene. Wall suffered severe burns, particularly to his legs. Three cars were destroyed in the blaze, causing over $100,000 worth of damage. At the time he was sentenced to 12 months in prison with a non-parole period of seven months.
